"I hadn't been around this area in a bit. But I'm very familiar with it having gone to school at Queens College. I was taken in by how NY Presbyterian has expanded from where it originally started. They have spread through main st and seem to have bought up houses and turned them into medical offices. Same thing has happened in Astoria I think, where Kaufman studios has expanded and bought real estate for their shoots or to house actors. I can only imagine how much the rent will be going up as a result. How can any of us compete with a hospital or movie studio? But as the hospital expands it means more jobs, as evidenced by the number of people I saw in scrubs or in nurses outfits, before 7am. This will in turn give rise to more businesses like this one, a small breakfast place. The bagels seemed freshly made. There are two tables for two, so it isnt a sit in place per se. My sausage and egg took a min but that reassured me that it was being made fresh. My black coffee was exactly what I expected. So no complaints. For less than six bucks, it was a very reasonable breakfast that I couldnt even finish since the roll was so packed. There is always the question of consistency for me if I came here everyday, would the food always be of this quality? But based on this visit, if you're looking for a hot breakfast in the area, cant go wrong here."
